Scaredy, your shopping habits are so liberal elitist.[/quote]
interesting fact…japan bought our usa vintage looming machines many years ago when much faster looms were invented.. only japan can make true vintage loopwheeled material for sweatshirts. the machines are slow but produce authentic feel. THE FABRIC IS EXPENSIVE. my grey loopwheeled sweatshirt was $225.00. but what can i do? wear chinese crap???
we sold those beautiful slow old machines and now buy material made by lightning fast new looms in china. all garbage, a mountain of garbage!!!
MAGA. i say we go repatriate our old loopwheel looms from japan, before they get nukes. they have a dangerous monopoly on old loopwheel technology.
Similar problem with denim.
sad.

The only problem scardey, is even your “Japanese” product is now Made in China. You’re just paying for the Japanese price markup.
Look at the label. I kid you not.
The Japanese have learned from the American companies in this regard too.
The difference between what comes out of China as “good” and what comes out as “crap”, is the quality specification the company gave to the factory(ies) in china.
If your only spec is “make it cheap”, you’ll definitely get exactly what you speced…all the way down to the leaded paint.

Lol.
Maybe the Made in Japan label, was actually a reproduction made in china.It reminds me of when I went to holland and watched them make wooden shoes with a machine made by yamaha.
November 22, 2016 at 9:08 AM #803996ParticipantWRONG.
this is a brand called THE REAL MCCOYS.
reputable bloggers and international inspection teams have visited THE REAL mCcoys shop and manufacturing spots onsite in japan.
your lies are NASTY, pathetic and desperate.
these sweatshirts are from japan. period, as are the horsehide jackets, the varsity letter jackets, the boots.
beautiful authentic vintage americana beautifully reproduced by strange modern japanese people.
MAGA via japan!!
highsnobiety visits real mccoys shop in london:
also google loopwheeled sweatshirts to get facts straight before making slanderous allegations about chinese made labels.
seriously though, i think america should make its own damn clothing. expensive wellmade stuff, peoples closets should not be stuffed with crap. instead just a few nice usa things. Remember when clothing used to be costly and fine and had ILGWU tags?
People buy and discards mountains of clothing. The environmental cost of producing all that wasted cotton is staggering.
and we can do that thru tariffs.November 22, 2016 at 9:10 AM #803998CoronitaParticipant[quote=scaredyclassic]WRONG.

Easy. Put a $50.00 tariff on every garment entering the USA.
Make America well dressed again.
Kill h&m, the gap, Walmart clothes, etc. put them out of business tomorrow!!!!! We will be poore in that we will have less clothes. But we will be richer because each piece will have meaning.
November 22, 2016 at 9:38 AM #804002ParticipantHowever I don’t like them
November 22, 2016 at 9:47 AM #804003CoronitaParticipantI don’t think I’ve bought any new clothes for the past 2 years, except shoes.
In fact, ever since I lost weight, I’ve been wearing all my clothes again from college freshman days that I couldn’t fit into after the first semester when I gained my freshman 20lbs.
And my old clothes were made in usa, lol…And they seemed to hold up better than some of my newer clothes.
That, and I get all my t-shirts that I can wear at work from tradeshows, lol…
Fortunately, I hate jeans so I don’t need to worry about those.

GuestNo, no, i love h&m.
BTW the old clothes are not better. Look at old pictures. The stuff didn’t fit right. Even the suits of rich people didn’t fit. Manufacturing is a lot more precise today.
I think the Japanese repro are better fitting for slim bodies.
What meaning? Only liberal elitists who buy that brand would know.

Less is more.
A country that can’t make its own underwear is a nation in trouble. I should not be buying Japanese made American REPROS. American quality should reign.
Bring Americas undies home.
November 22, 2016 at 10:34 AM #804008ParticipantWRONG.
WRONG FIH WRONG.
YOU NASTY MAN.
America looked awesome 70 years ago, we look like shit today.
what this country needs is a damn dress code. no trade show t shirts! nasty!
BG, YOU ARE SO WRONG. just checked washing label on my sweatshirt. made in the land of the rising sun. JAPAN!!!
